First, I’m not sure being tracked across all platforms is actually a requirement here. On device age verification and device attestation and/or simply assuming anonymous users are under 18 from an ad safety perspective would allow a level of anonymity across platforms. It might also help solve a large chunk of ad fraud.

Second, I think you really need strong evidence to say that the upside you’re asserting is truly worth sacrificing kids safety.
